　　Welcome, ladies and gentlemen, to the fight that will determine the heavyweight champion of the continent.

　　In the end corner is a contender from outside the continental United States. You can tell he is a rude and contemptible man by the content of his hostile comments. However, he claims that he is actually a gentle person with a contemporary attitude. He asserts that the media quotes his words out of context to make him look bad. Judging by his size, I don’t think anyone would dare to contradict him. Physically, he has the contour of a huge body builder. Tonight, he can earn as much as $500,000 under his fight contract. However, these earnings are contingent upon whether he wins the match. Some say that he won’t be contented unless he wins by a knockout.

　　In the blue corner is the current champion of the contiguous 48 states. He really wants to win the continental title tonight. He says he wants to maintain continuitybetween the two titles because they are both part of the continuum of world-class titles. The current champion is usually a very friendly person. However, tonight, he is acontemptuous fighter. He says he’s tired of the challenger’s contradictorystatements. You can bet that his aggression will be focused on the challenger tonight.

　　For several months, both men have been in vicious contention for the continental title. Tonight is a continuation of their brutal dispute. So, let the battle begin!

　　女士们，先生们，欢迎大家前来观战，今天的拳击赛将角逐产生美洲重量级拳击。

　　红色角落里的争夺者来自美国大陆以外的。从他充满仇意的言语内容中，大家不难看出他是个粗野可鄙的人。但他声称自己实际是一位思想现代的绅士。他坚称媒体不顾上下文就引用他的话，实属故意丑化他的断章取义之举。凭他的体型，我想没人敢反驳他。身体上，他拥有一名高大健美者的外形。他只需稍微紧紧胳膊上的肌肉就能吓坏大多数人。根据他的拳击合同，今晚他的酬金将高达50万美元。但这比收入还要取决于他能否赢得这场比赛。有人说他不把对手击倒在地就不会满足。

　　蓝色角落里的是今年全美48大接壤州的。他确实想赢得今晚的美洲称号。她说他想保持两大称号间的连续性，因为他们都是一系列的称号的一部分。今年的通常十分友好。但今晚，他是一名傲慢的战士。他说他对手那些自相矛盾的词语令他感到腻烦。你可以打赌今晚他将集中精力挑战对手。

　　几个月来，二人都在激烈地争夺这一美洲称号，今晚的比赛只是他们残酷竞争的延续。所以，开战吧。

　　上面是一些托福词汇，考生要加强对词汇应用的理解，方便以后做题的时候用到，只要功夫深，铁杵磨成针，相信大家可以攻克词汇大关的，加油!
